M915 Radiator Reverse Engineering Effort

Abstract

Performance tests were conducted on two new M915 tractor truck radiators to develop requirements needed for solicitation of new materiel sources. There requirements were not previously available to TACOM and due to the lack of M915 radiators in the Army Supply System, a need was warranted for requirement testing and development. Testing was conducted in-house at TACOM's air flow lab facility, in a joint effort between AMSTA-RGD and AMSTA-TBM, during the months of April and May 1990. Results were reviewed, adopted and provided to the sponsoring organization, SFAE-CS-TVH. Keywords: Cooling, Heat transfer, Performance requirements, Cooling performance tests.
